Justice to Participate in 3X3U National Championship in New Orleans

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — WKU Hilltopper Basketball graduate senior guard Camron Justice has been selected to participate in the 2022 Dos Equis 3X3U National Championship, scheduled for April 1-3 at The Sugar Mill in New Orleans.

Sixty-four players who have elected to begin their professional careers will represent all 32 Division I conferences and compete for their share of $150,000 – one of the largest prize purses at any FIBA 3x3 sanctioned events – by teaming up with other aspiring pro prospects from around the country.

Each conference will be paired with another, forming 16 four-man rosters that will be separated into four pools. Justice is one of four players that will be part of the American/C-USA Team.

With one of the most interesting stories in the nation this year as a seventh-year senior, Justice finished second on WKU in scoring with 14.7 points per game, while also averaging 3.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists. Justice made 76 3-pointers across the season, which ranks in the top 10 in WKU single-season history.

The Hindman, Ky., native began the season as a graduate assistant in academics with the program before receiving an additional year of eligibility due to previous injuries and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Justice made his season debut in November one day after getting married and ultimately started 26 games in 30 appearances.

Teams will play each squad in their respective pool on April 1 and 2 before all 16 will head to the knockout stage on April 3, with the top two teams from each pool receiving byes to the quarterfinals. The winning team from each pool play game will win $1,000, victories in the first two knockout rounds will net another $1,000, a quarterfinal win is worth $5,000, a semifinal triumph is another $10,000, while the team that takes home the Tournament title will add $50,000 to their winnings.
